Five years ago yesterday, Heath Ledger passed away in NYC. The anniversary is a sad one, and I’m sure the people who knew and loved Heath would have wanted to remember his life rather than his death. Like, remember him on his birthday, or on Matilda’s birthday, or on the anniversary of some special date which was close to his heart rather than the day that he died. But five years later, the cult of Heath and the posthumous worship of all things Heath Ledger still survives, especially in the hearts of the famewhores who want to desperately remind you that they were briefly connected to him in his last months. One of those famewhores? Lindsay Lohan. She tweeted this yesterday:

Is this a bitch move? Because my first thought was that Lindsay was equating her loss with Matilda Ledger’s loss – like Lindsay and Matilda (excuse me, “Mattie”) are the only ones who will properly remember Heath. And that’s just rude and obnoxious to Heath’s family and to Michelle Williams, who claimed ownership of “The Widow Ledger” mantle years and years ago.

This isn’t the first time Lindsay has angled herself into Heath’s life story. She apparently told her mother that Heath was “the love of her life” and Michael Lohan once taped a conversation between himself and Dina in which they discussed how messed up Lindsay was and is because of Heath’s death. Other ladies that spent time with Heath in his last months: Lily Cole, MK Olsen, Gemma Ward, and several others. I’m just saying… you can honor his life and still acknowledge that he was screwing every young starlet/model in those last months.

Someone needs to put this on a billboard.
This is disgustingly tacky and insensitive on the Cracken’s part, although really, why on earth should we expect more from someone who is essentially a prostitute?
Side note, I didn’t you’re an Aussie, Alonso, I had you pegged as British because of the Doctor Who name!
… *ahem*

+1000 – Oh yes and hooray for British TV. I have seen some good Australian movies too and I remember way back in the day the Five Mile Creek series, which my family obsessed over. I was a little girl and was in love with Con and I remember a young Nicole Kiman playing in that series.

Take this for what it’s worth, since it’s second-hand gossip and I have no way of proving it . . .I used to be friends with someone who was very close to Naomi Watts. At the time Heath died, my friend said Naomi had told her that Lindsay Lohan kept trying to contact Heath’s parents and wanted to attend his funeral, claiming she was his real girlfriend – to the point where they had a lawyer send her a threatening letter to back off. I though that sounded crazy at the time, but given yesterday’s tweet, it seems feasible to me.

Also, on a more shallow level, how much do I love that yellow dress Michele wore to the Oscars (Golden Globes?)? And I don’t even like the color yellow.

Thanks for the insider info. The sad thing is that whether its true or not Blohan is such a crack-mess that people are willing to believe she is capable of anything. Heck if my own grandmother told me that Lilo stole Christmas I would believe her ( on second thoughts its possible she would steal Christmas if it wasn’t nailed down)

I wish this was hard to believe Faye, I really do. Look Ledger was no saint, and frankly I don’t think he would want to be remembered as one, but he was also very very private. That alone tells me there wouldn’t have been any great love affair with Lilo. Bringing up his daughter like you know her?…oh hell no Craken!

Yeah, mentioning the daughter’s name was beyond the pale, even for Lilo. I mean . . . she is an innocent *child.* Thankfully she has seemingly very devoted and responsible family like Michele and her grandparents to shield her from garbage like this. Can you imagine the teasing from kids at school over being twit-cited by Lohan?

IMO that yellow dress is iconic! I will never forget seeing her walk down the red carpet in it and thinking WOW! I have never seen Michelle Williams look more beautiful before or since!

@ andy, YES! I have brought it up several time but no one else seems to remember that she was in hard core pursuit of James Franco for like a year, before her star died and right before his started to soar. She went like super crazy over him, buying him all kinds of stuff and looking like a total stalker. I wish i could find the story/stories.

It wouldn’t have been so blatantly tasteless had she not included his daughter in it. I doubt she had any significant relationship with her, if any at all. This crack roach is using a child whose father died before she ever got to really know him as a tool to get more people to pay attention to her, disgusting

Anyhoo, gosh I remember these old days when Heath and Michelle were together, she was head over heels in love with him, and he loved her so much too it was so endearing to see the love… And somehow it made my heart flutter the story about the “Old Man River” tattoo on Heath arm, it was so beautiful.!.. Too bad their love story didn’t last… *sigh*

She is such a disgusting human being. I know celebs don’t like to throw down like this, but if I was Michelle I would smack the shit out of Lindsey for bringing her daughter into that bull. So disrespectful!

I agree with you but Michelle’s best option is to ignore this piece of excrement since she is obviously trying to get attention and if anyone in the media/celeb world makes a comment about this piece of trash then next thing you know she drags your name around until the next victim falls in her path. I mean she tried to ruin both the republican and democratic party during elections with her tweets. No one is safe from her.

Honoring/remembering a friend is fine. Bringing his young daughter into it? Not at all OK. That’s just terrible, yet not at all surprising.
It’s really gross how she tried to insert herself into the whole story.

I dont even know what to say anymore. Hasnt she outlived her shelf life? When are we going to get the big pay off from all these Shenanigans? Im so sorry that I have to say that but I really am waiting for it.

It’s like this sow goes out of her way to make people want to bash her. She has to be the stupidest person on this planet. She says the most disrespectful things at the most hurtful times. Like she was brought up by a pack of rabid, cross bred hyenas, oh wait she was.

Honest question: had someone else twitted (typo and it stays) this, would it be read so badly?
I’d appreciate it if it could be elaborated- what makes this post so terrible? Again honest question, so please spare calling me an idiot

It’s bad because she mentions his daughter and acts like her grief is comparable to Matilda’s loss. She probably has no relationship with the child and should not speak for her ever. If she had a relationship with HL why bring it up? Only to get attention and associate herself with someone famous and talented. She may sincerely grieve for HL but this doesn’t show it.

It’s a fair question Teehee and the answer I think is with a few exceptions it would be as bad if someone else tweeted it. Coming for someone like for example Jake Gyllenhaal would be more tolerable (he’s the daughter’s godfather); but what’s telling is that we saw no such quote from him or anyone else close to Heath. Those closest kept things private.

If she had tweeted “RIP HL, forever in my heart”…I might roll my eyes but no big deal. It’s the tweeting as if there is some connection to his daughter (come on, you know there is not) that I find hugely distasteful.

Heath died of a drug overdose. LL is constantly cracked out of her mushy twisted mind. Acting like Heath’s death touched her, but refusing to acknowledge that she has a drug problem or to do anything about it? It’s the most disgusting addict logic thing I have ever seen.

You wanted attention, Lindsay about Heath’s death? The cops should look into your saggy freckled ass for supplying him with the drugs that killed him.

If he ever did hang out with LL, it’s only because of how far he had fallen in his addiction. When he died, Michelle and he were broken up because of his addiction. And his visits with his daughter were close to having to be supervised. These are all signs of how far he was into his addiction.

The biggest sign of how far he had fallen was that he would have anything to do with this orange poop stain of a person.

Prescriptions drugs can be abused,
Especially in Hollywood where you can get doctors to prescribe you with anything or doctor shop. Just because they were prescribed doesn’t mean he didn’t have a problem.

Out of all the really shitty, famewhore things she’s done and continues to do, this is the one that disgusts me the most. Bad enough that she would co-op a dead man’s name to get attention, worse that she would drag his child into it.

Do we even have confirmation that she even knew him?! What a fame-whoring tramp. If I was Michelle I’d be pissed that she’s tweeting about her daughter and calling her Matty like she’s a close personal friend.

Side note- I still love Michelle in that yellow dress. Usually she dresses too twee for me but she looked perfect in that dress.

Lol.
I love your choice of photos for the piece.
Cracked out Lilo and her fame whoring tweet followed by Heath and Michelle looking fabulous at premieres etc..holding hands and clearly in a fairly loving adult relationship…Perfectly done. Point made.

When it’s come to Heath, LL has never shown any class. I will say I think Heath was an awesome actor and I was heartbroken when he died, especially when it came out out that all he did was mix cold medicine and anti-anxiety medication.

LL was crack stalking Heath when he was alive, so is anyone really surprised that she said what she said?

Hmmm…anti-anxiety meds can be fatal if more than the prescribed dosage is consumed. Didn’t he overdose on these meds? I used to take anti-anxiety meds for a while in the past and that shit can get addictive. Thanks to the control freak in me I stopped taking it after two weeks.

I bet Michelle Williams wants to punch her in the face right about now. Along with Heath’s entire family. What an attention seeking skank… to rank herself in the same category as Heath’s daughter (and to list herself first????)… delusional much Crackie??

C-Roach? well, ‘spoiler alert’ just think about what people are gonna tweet when you kick the bucket sweetheart. OUCH. yikes that was mean. But really, Lilo is headed down the same path….next year is 27 and i believe she turns that this spring.

seriously, i really wonder what the general consensus will be when CRoach passes away. Will Michael and Dina STILL be fighting over her? beating each other up over her coffin being lowered into the dirt?

i wonder what the hollywood reaction will be… can’t be on the level w/ heath, people genuinely loved him, admired his work. Would Hollywood dare to ‘no shocker’ ‘no suprise’ ‘low talent but high notoriety as a mess?’

really….this is a nation of HoLo haters. go on ANY website and people’s reactions are NOT kind. find me ONE website that favors the Lohan and treats her like the dumb kiss blowing bloated up mess she really is…

This wouldn’t have been so bad if she hadn’t mentioned the kid. Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with her? She talks like she knows this little girl, calling her “Mattie”. There’s no way Michelle Williams would let her within ten miles of that child. She’s just so gross and awful.

Exactly!! My first thought was , AS IF Michelle Williams is having LiLo over for visits and to babysit. Say what you will about Michelle Williams, but she is a good mother, and I doubt she’d ever willingly let her daughter be around the likes of Lindsay Lohan. What a worthless piece of garbage Lindsay is. Ugh.

You know who else did this? Tila Tequila when her ‘fiancé’ died. (Okay, I’m truly armpit deep in the bag of z-lister gossip history). And even then Tila Tequila and that Johnson heiress had whatever relationship/business arrangement to keep that attention whore stunt going.
